Default Shipping from Zimbabwe?

Hi there,

Over the weekend, I went just a little mad and bought a lot of heavy
stone sculptures. Anyone recommend a reasonable and reputable shipping
comapany that I can use in Hararre/Zimbabwe to ship to Australia/UK?

Thanks

Bad timing.

Until a few weeks ago the Zimbabwean postal service was charging less
than $1US/kg to ship items to the UK. That figure leapt to between
five and ten times that amount the day before I arrived hoping to post
home 20kg worth of wooden curios :(

If you were hoping to exploit Zimbabwes famously cheap shipping rates
then you're going to have to think again. Sorry.
